<p>So, as came up in <a href="#narrow/stream/144729-t-compiler.2Fwg-traits/topic/Minimal.20Specialization" title="#narrow/stream/144729-t-compiler.2Fwg-traits/topic/Minimal.20Specialization">the "Minimal Specialization" topic</a>, this working group often tackles issues that lie at the boundary of t-compiler and t-lang.</p>
<p>To make that clearer, I'd like to rename this stream to <code>#wg-traits/t-compiler</code> and create a second stream <code>#wg-traits/t-lang</code> (or maybe <code>wg-traits/implementation</code> and <code>wg-traits/design</code>). The idea being that the "t-compiler" stream is for implementation-focused questions, and "t-lang" more for "design-focused" ones, but that working group members would be expected to keep up with both. Alternatively, maybe we just want to have one stream (<code>#wg-traits</code>).</p>
<p>Thoughts?</p>
<p>(And, cc <span class="user-group-mention" data-user-group-id="1095">@WG-meta</span>)</p>

<p>I'm not sure whether we need two separate streams, given that we have solid threading within them (and discussions often end up skirting the boundary).  what about just #wg-traits?</p>

<p>one question is whether the scope is really more general than "traits" and if it would be worth naming it accordingly (e.g. <code>#wg-types</code>)</p>

<p>I think in general it makes sense to split design and implementation, but for now it's fair to say that a similar group of people are involved with both, so the distinction isn't so immediately obvious</p>

<p>I'm fine with #wg-traits, we can always add substreams where appropriate</p>

<p>OK, I renamed the stream -- though now I see <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="121053">@varkor</span>'s comment. It's true, it is in some sense a bit more genreal.</p>

<p>But I'm going to run with traits anyway :P</p>
